<p>Something did change: WSL is apparently now included in the Windows image? See <a href="https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/pull/1081">https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/pull/1081</a>, which was merged and possibly deployed recently?</p>

<p>The error message, "Windows Subsystem for Linux has no installed distributions." seems to indicate what it says, but it's confusing—did/do builds depend on having a WSL distro installed? (I guess for running the shell script in the first place?)</p>
